Sure, there were loads of cool new trailers at The Game Awards. Divinity. Wizard's of the Coast's Warlock. Fate of the Old Republic. The list goes on, and on, and on. But I'm a Diablo 4 person at heart, and my personal highlight was, of course, the Lord of Hatred trailer (even if Mephisto calling out influencers ahead of the reveal was... a choice). With the new Paladin class out now and another on the way, it's going to be one of my 2026 highlights, and has absolutely put me in the demon-slaying mood. If you're also intent on smacking some monsters around, Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel is perfect for keeping you busy, and it's currently free on the Epic Games Store.
